Polar Bear Case Study

For this project, I set out to learn and execute a complete creature CFX pipeline with the goal of bringing a realistic polar bear to life. From simulation prep through muscle, skin, and fur dynamics, the focus was on capturing believable secondary motion and anatomical detail. The process involved integrating multiple layers of deformation and grooming techniques to convey the weight, softness, and subtle behaviors of a real animal. This hands-on experience was a deep dive into creature workflows, emphasizing both technical precision and artistic intent.
